Please hurry Find the equation of the linear function that passes through the point
(-1,-4) and has a slope of -6.

y = -6x -10

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is y = mx + b

1. m is the slope so you can replace m with -6.

2. You are given a point, so you can replace variables x and y with the point. The equation should now look like this:

y = -6x + b

-4 = -6(-1) + b

3. Then multiply -6 and -1 to get 6. Now you are left with -4 = 6 + b

4. To solve for b you must get it alone. Right now B isn't alone because a 6 is being added to b. To get b alone you need to subtract 6. Now your equation should look like this: -4 - 6 = B

5. Get a calculator or use mental math and you will get B = -10.

6. Then plug b and m into y = mx + b, and you should get y = -6x - 10
